LAUNCH SEAGULL
SAFE, 6 DAYS LATE
Fear Felt That Astoria Craft
Had Been Blown Far
Out to Sea.
ALL PROVISIONS ARE GONE
With Only One Case of Beer Aboard
Crew of Four Have Exciting Ex
perience Two Sick Cap
tain Is Exhausted.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Sept. 20. The 33
foot gasoline fishing launch Seagull,
which left Astoria for Seattle Septem
ber 13 with a crew of four men, and
which it was feared had been blown out
to sea, arrived in port today five days
o'erdue.
The Seagull left Astoria with a chart
good only as far as the Strait of Juan
de Fuca, and when the little vessel
arrived off Cape Flattery her master
lost his way and cruised northward 200
miles, where the Seagull was sighted
by the steam whaler Sebastian. A new
chart was obtained, and the Seagull
made her way to Seattle under her own
power. The provisions with which the
Seagull left Astoria were exhausted
when she arrived here. The four men
aboard her averred that there was noth
ing dangerous about the trip.
Crew Really One Man.
The Seagull left Astoria with Captain
Christ Abrahamson in charge, John
Clausen and Albert Hauk In the engine
room and Conrad Olsen as "crew."
There were provisions aboard for six
days, a chart of the coast as far north
as Cape Flattery, and. beside the water,
a case of beer. The water tank was a
new one, and red lead or some caulking
material on thr Inside made the water
unfit to drink. There was apparently
nothing else to hinder a successful trip.
It was rough off the Oregon coast, espe
cially the first night at sea, and the
launch blew off shore some distance,
but otherwise everything went well.
The Seagull kept in close to the coast.
and on Sunday Captain Abrahamson,
figuring they should be near the Cape,
saw the lightship off Umatilla Reef, but
it was dark, and he did not .know the
Straits. He decided, therefore, to lay
, off Cape Flattery until Monday morn
' lng.
Sunday night brought a 45-mile wind
out of the east, and the wind began to
roll a sea. The Seagull headed into
the rollers, and the engine was kept at
full speed ahead.
Men lost Food IjOt.
Morning found the little craft playing
hide-and-seek with mountainous seas.
A thick mist narrowed the horizon close
about the struggling craft. Where they
were the four men on the Seagull knew
not. The provisions were low. They
decided that one meal a day would
make the food last six days longer. The
beer was the only cold drink on board
that they could swallow.
Captain Abrahamson had had no sleep
since the launch left Astoria. Hauk
and Clausen had been deathly sick,
though both were old hands at coast
fishing. The launch pitched at terrify
ing and unexpected angles until It was
dangerous to stand up without laying
hold of something fast. Then the en
gines failed. The bearings were over
heated, and they stopped the machinery
and drifted in the mist.
In the afternoon the veil of mist was
suddenly torn aside, and the men found
themselves close under a wild shore of
cliffs and reefs that surrounded them
on every side. Clausen had no tools to
clean the overheated bearings, but with
a file and a piece of rope he had been
at work smoothing them. In the mean
time the Seagull was drifting into the
reefs. When the mists parted and
showed them their peril. Captain Abra
hamson ordered the engine started at
once. Fortunately it responded long
enough for them to get off shore.
Offer of Aid Turned Dona,
Tuesday the steam whaler Sebastian
came up and offered to tow the Seagull
to safety. Captain Abrahamson thought
he could take care of himself.
"Where am I?" he asked. "Off Cape
Scott, 200 miles north of Cape Flattery,"
was the reply. "Let me have a chart.
Captain." said the skipper of the Sea
gull. A chart of Vancouver Island
coast was lowered to him, and the Sea
gull was off again. Tuesday night they
had tempestous seas, with the waves
breaking clear over the launch. Thurs
day afternoon they headed into Cape
Flattery on the Canadian side, and
Thursday night they reached Port
Townsend. This morning they finished
the voyage.
Lars Hansen, the Seagull's owner,
was a happy man when his friend. Cap
tain Abrahamson, found him today and
reported the safe arrival.
"Except that I didn't sleep for six
days and worried considerable. It was
all right," said Captain Abrahamson.

TELEPHONE TALK IS FATAL
Man Who Would Kill Caught While
Discnssi,ng Murder Deal.
SEATTLE, Sept. 20. "How many
years will you give me if I kill Dave
tonight?"
When the, telephone operator at po
lice headquarters heard that question
over the wire last night he acted with
dispatch and circumspection. Switch
ing the call to the desk sergeant, the
operator busied himself tracing the
call, which he found came from the
booth In a saloon on First avenue.
South.
While the desk sergeant engaged the
anxious inquirer in interesting conver
sation about the merits of the pros
pective killing, a motorcycle policeman
was dispatched to the saloon. Accord
ing to the Information received over
the telephone, the would-be assassin
had sold a horse and wagon two years
ago to a teamster for 170. The debt
had never been paid and the former
owner was planning to settle the score
with bullets.
When the motorcycle, policeman
reached the saloon he hurried to the
telephone booth, where he found Joe
Gerger, a blacksmith, aged 25, talking
over th wire to the desk sergeant.
The policeman quietly extracted a pis
tol from Gergers pocket and arrested
him on a charge of carrying concealed
weapons. At police headquarters Ger
ger was greatly puzzled to know how
his arrest came about.

, Parties in Vice Crusade.
NEWPORT, Or., Sept. 20. (Special.)
Harry Lane, Democratic candidate, for
United States Senator, addressed a
mixed audience of about 60 men

in his Portland vice crusade; that the
heads of the light and power com
panies were the ones that were running
the city, and that the city officials
were obliged to dance to their music.
When he was Mayor of Portland he
said he had found the thieves and
grafters and had put them out of
office.
He said Yaquina Bay was a good
harbor, but that through the influence
of railroads and other corporations its
development had -been retarded and
the harbor improvements had gone to
waste.

ult lor oivorce ana tne recovery oi a

GRANTS PASS MAN FILES
R. G. Smith, Democrat, to Make
Race for Seat in CongTess.
SALEM, Or Sept. 20. (Special.)
The complications in the political situ
ation in the First Congressional Dis
trict was somewhat increased Thursday
when R. O. Smith, of Grants Pass, filed
his acceptance of the Democratic nom
ination for Representative In Congress
from the First District.
This now places three candidates in
the field: W. C. Hawley, Republican;
R. G. Smith, Democrat, and John W.
Campbell, Koosevelt Progressive.
The certificate of Campbell's nomi
nation was filed today by U. U. Mc
Mahan, chairman, and . B. Barber, sec
retary of the convention which nomi
nated him, but Campbell's acceptance
has not been filed.
For some time It was said as almost
an assured fact that Smith would not
run and -it was freely reported here
that, a combination had been perfected
whereby Smith was to remain out of
the race and allow George F. Rodgers
to become a candidate on the Roose
velt Progressive ticket.
Then Rodgers stated he would not
accept the nomination If tendered to
him and the Roosevelt Progressives
nominated Campbell. Immediately fol
lowing the convention Smith filed hla
acceptance and his intention to become
a candidate.

of the ancient city of Mycenae, dating back to
